Queer Archi* Social

A meetup for Queer and Trans people working and studying in architecture, landscape, horticulture, and built environment. Hosted by London's incredible practices and offices.

Queer Archi* Social began because too many LGBTQ+ people in our industry are working in isolation. Often the only queer person in their office, without visible leadership to look to. We started these gatherings to build the community that counters that.
We're for LGBTQ+ people, and if you consider yourself part of the built environment, you're welcome here. Architects, landscape architects, engineers, interior designers, horticulturists, and more, alongside the architecture-curious, students, and anyone still discovering what a career in practice could look like.
It's not a formal networking event. It's a relaxed space to meet people who get it, swap stories, and maybe find your next collaborator. No forced icebreakers, just good company. Expect our hosts to show their spaces and introduce their work alongside refreshments and fun conversation prompts.

i didn't know i would feel so comfortable talking about practice as a queer person. This event showed me that I can belong.

facilitating the bringing together of a diverse group of inspiring, interesting and creative individuals was such a beautiful experience. We all deserve to see ourselves reflected in design and the places we inhabit.
